Flower Umbrella Procession was held today July 24, which is a part of Gion Festival of Kyoto. Around 850 people including young children and beautiful ladies participated this procession.
Among them, I was perfectly fascinated with the beauty of Geiko and Maiko.
Young children carried the portable shrine wearing the same happi coats and tenugui headbands.
I had a wonderful time to see Japanese beauties filled with red color.
